Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Well, the reasons given for not enabling them here were:

1. Nobody would use them anyway, so why bother?
2. Extra work for staff, making sure people don't post inappropriate content.

*shrug* It's easy enough to create one elsewhere and link to it.

 

[Double A]

Yeah, I figured as much. It's not a big deal at all.

How long is the OT poll going to be open?

 

[dalamb]

Is there a way to search for all the attachments I've made? I need to delete ancient save files, and didn't see a search option to find posts with attachments. (though I plan to keep the Civ IV Nobles' Club saves as long as people want them, which might be forever). I don't want to have to search through my 2600+ individual posts.

 

[The_J]

Under "My Account" -> "Attachements", you'll get a list of all your attachements, and you can directly delete them from there.

Thanks!

How long is the OT poll going to be open?

Probably until one of us finds the time to compile results and then close it. It would seem that RL schedules are eating up lots of moderator time.

If someone has you on ignore, this means you cannot access their wall, even if just for reading. Is this correct?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's how it works. Which is a stellar way to harass someone as you can post to their wall to poke at them but they can't respond in any way.

Or you could just ignore them too.

Is there a reason that there seems to be an uptick in locked threads and that it is somehow inappropriate to ask about such an uptick publically?

 

[madviking]

So, forum updates?

 

[hobbsyoyo]

Was the site down yesterday? I couldn't access it for a few hours yesterday afternoon ~4-8pm US Central Time.

 

[madviking]

i was surely online during that time

 

[Takhisis]

It might have been the result of your RL acquaintances disconnecting teh Internetz to force you to have RL interactions.

Tapatalk doesn't let me post, with an error that "you have not specified a username for this post". Moderators seem to have no issues with it, so to test what is causing it, I cloned my account, but made it an administrator account, not a super-administrator account.

(Still doesnt work, by the way)

Trust software not to work when it's most important!

btw you currently have far more PC than Mobby.

There's an admin tier above the four of you?

All admins are equal, but some admins are more equal than others.
